Dear bro.tan, You have built your foundation with "works" mixed with faith. With this faulty foundation, you cannot build upon it. That is the reason you can't accept the verses I am posting which contradict your beliefs. Until your foundation is destroyed and replaced with the foundation of...

Dear bro.tan, We are saved by Christ and not by our own works. When Christ is ready to save a person, He will come to them and give them the Holy Spirit. With the Spirit, they will have the faith they need to call Jesus "Lord". This is the only way it can happen because of what this verse...

Dear bro.tan, You said: In Revelation 22: 18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19 and if any man shall take away from the words of the book of...

Dear Aunty Jane, You asked: Have you studied the scriptures carefully FWD? I am sure that you think you have, but whose ideas are you promoting? Who told you that what you state is the truth, and the correct interpretation? Are you not one of many who identify as “Christians”, all with different...

Dear Aunty Jane, You said: You do realize that what you inferred there was an interpretation of scripture that suits your beliefs…..nowhere is this statement given the interpretation you have gleaned from it. My beliefs only come from scripture and my understanding of scripture comes from the...

Dear O'Darby, I hardly think that keeping the name of Jesus off bumper stickers, T-shirts and billboards is equivalent to what the Puritans taught, nor is it a "grim, strict, and narrow view". The name of Jesus is holy and is above all names. It should be given the highest level of respect and...

Dear St.SteVen, So you don't believe this scripture below? Prov 2:1 My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, 2 making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; 3 yes, if you call out for insight and raise your voice for...

CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... The true church consists of only converted Elect believers who have received both the Early and Latter Rains of the Spirit. Mat 22:14 For many are called, but few are chosen. The "many" who are "called" will enter the church after they receive the Early...

Dear bro.tan I only want to respond to your first paragraph since we have had discussions on what you stated in your last two paragraphs. I agree that when we first accept Jesus in our lives our salvation is not secure. I want to explain more on this truth below. But before I do, I want to...

Dear O'Darby, Jesus is holy and righteous. It is wrong to place His name on a bumper sticker regardless of how it is used. Christ should not be brought down to being some type of advertisement or joke. It is very inappropriate and it violates the second commandment. Joe

CONTINUED FROM THE PREVIOUS POST... I now want to give you an easy example of how to understand scripture using this verse below: Mat 26:52 Then said Jesus unto him, put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. Does Christ really mean...

Dear Hobie, What you stated above is not supported by scripture and is nothing more than extrabiblical reasonings. Where are your scriptures? Here are mine: Scripture says that the truth of God is concealed from this world. Even for believers who have been given "eyes that can see"...

Dear St. SteVen, I do not "preach the Latter Rain gospel". I teach the truth of God's Word which proclaims that a person is only saved after they have received both the Early and Latter Rains of the Spirit. James 5:7 Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the...

Dear St. SteVen, You asked: Would you claim that Jesus is NOT the answer if I couldn't come up with an exact Bible quote saying "Jesus is the answer"? Yes, I would. God's Word tells us to not to add to the teachings of scripture. This verse applies: 1Cor 4:6 Now, brothers and sisters, I have...

Dear bro.tan, As the scripture says, Christ came to fulfill the Law because mankind has no ability to do so. He fulfilled the sacrificial requirements of the Old Covenant of Law at the cross. He is now fulfilling the remaining portion of the Law under the New Covenant. Under that covenant...

Dear quietthinker, I stand by my comments. Christ's name should never be used carelessly or in a fashion as we do with the people of this world. Doing so is very disrespectful. Can you show me from scripture where any of the Elect ever spoke of Christ in a joking or disrespectful way? They...

Dear Aunty Jane, I stand by my comments. Christ is holy and righteous and should be given the highest respect when referring to Him. Using the name of Christ to make jokes/bumper stickers/T-shirts, etc. is profaning the name of Christ. Joe

Dear St. SteVen, The body of Christ was devoured by wolves shortly after Paul died. None of the sheep were spared: Acts 20:29 For I know this, that after my departing shall grievous wolves enter in among you, not sparing the flock. 30 Also of your own selves shall men arise, speaking perverse...

Dear St. SteVen, (I first thought you were O'Darby) Being under grace does not make it okay to sin and disrespect the name of Jesus. His name should only be treated with reverence and respect. You are applying the standards of this world (and the apostate church) to the name of Jesus and not...

Dear O'Darby, Using the name of the Lord in jokes or other disrespectful ways violates the second commandment. As Christians, we should serve and speak of the Lord only with "reverence and godly fear" because His name is above all names. Heb 12:28 Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which...
